Local Housing Strategy 2026/31

Stirling Council is developing a new Local Housing Strategy to help address the key housing priorities of local residents and communities. This strategy will outline our vision and objectives for housing and related services over the next five years, along with our plans for how we intend to achieve them.

It will focus on priorities across all housing tenures and types, including how we will:

• Increase the supply of high-quality, affordable housing
• Improve the condition and energy efficiency of homes across Stirling
• Prevent and respond to homelessness
• Meet the housing needs of people with specific requirements to support independent living
• Work with landlords to make Stirling’s private rented sector a sustainable housing option

We recognise that communities across Stirling Council face a range of housing challenges. To ensure our strategy reflects these differences, focuses on what matters most to our residents, and allows us to direct our resources effectively, we need your input.

Your views will help shape the priorities of our Local Housing Strategy and guide how we deliver services and allocate resources. The survey should take around ten minutes to complete and will play a key role in shaping Stirling’s housing vision for the years ahead.

If you would prefer to submit a physical survey, copies will be available from any library in the Stirling Council area.
